Selecting the right envelope for a particular project is as important as determining which format to use when creating a new piece. Utilitarian and functional, artistic and inviting, envelopes make a significant contribution to the overall success of a project and should be chosen with care.

There are as many types of envelopes on the market as there are different papers. Envelopes are available in a wide range of colors, shapes and sizes, and can be printed in virtually any color including four-color process. Factory-made envelopes have limitations that should be considered early on, so it is wise to discuss the full scope of a project with CJPW in advance of delivering files for production.

Frequently, envelopes are designed using extensive colors and graphics that make it necessary to print the flat sheet and then die cut and fabricate the envelope. CJPW is happy to provide insight and advice on how to produce the envelope component of any project.
